Butterflies..

Hello all - so sorry for the lack of posts over the past few weeks, I ended up extending my holiday so catching up on blogging has got rather delayed! I think I left my mojo somewhere on a mountain in Switzerland but hopefully over the next few days it'll come home!

Here's a little something I made before I went away - I've had some Spellbinder butterfly dies for ages and finally decided it was about time I used them:

These are just brilliant. I've also had the butterfly die for a while and not been too sure what to do with it... you've given me the inspiration and I've made several. Did my first craft fair today and sold all of these! Thanks so much for the idea and sharing it with us!Zoe

Gorgeous butterflies, I do love those colours and your stitching is so neat! Great idea with the hanging decoration too. Don't worry about your mojo, it's been working so hard of late maybe it felt it needed a further extension on it's hols!! (either that or the airline lost it?!!) I'm sure it will be back in time for your next post, Love Jane xxx

OMG Kate you're such a clever thing! Still amazingly jealous over your super stitching - I still have to pretend I intended mine to be wonky LOL!Lovin' that die too - just one of a million spellbinders I NEED!Have a super Sunday - guess you'll be watching the Ashes - ooh so tense!Hugs,Aimesx

The Passion for Papertrey Girls!

Welcome to A Passion for Papertrey - a place where lovers of Papertrey Ink can get together to share ideas, inspiration, take part in challenges and join swaps!

We're Kate, Aimes and Caryn - we all live in the UK and became friends thanks to our mutual love of all things Papertrey. We soon found out there were lots of other fans in the UK and Europe and thought there should be a corner of the web to bring us together.

Of course we welcome readers from around the world but our primary aim is to unite stampers who use Papertrey products from the UK and the rest of Europe.

Every fortnight we will set a challenge using Papertrey products AND at the end of each challenge we will randomly draw a winner who will recieve some Papertrey goodies! This may be a roll of ribbon, a selection of papers and matching cardstock or even a stamp set!!

We know that as it is an overseas company you may not have a large collection of stamps and Papertrey colours so these will be kept quite general.

For example if you don't have the Papertrey colours you could use one of their stamps and cardstock/papers from other companies, or get creative with just some Papertrey papers and ribbon - the main thing is to have fun!

We'd love to be able to share the projects that you've made with your Papertrey products! We're always looking for Papertrey projects so if you would like yours to be featured on here email us at apassionforpapertrey(at)yahoo(dot)com

Need inspiration? We will regularly feature Papertrey projects from stampers around the world - these may be the Papertrey Design team or other stampers who inspire us to use our Papertrey products in new ways.

We will be organising swaps for stampers to exchange their projects. Details coming soon!
